Abstract

A super-resolution approach was used to create 2mm isotropic diffusion tensor images (DTI) from diffusion-weighted imaging data acquired on a low field, portable system. Mean diffusivity, fractional anisotropy and principal eigenvector orientation maps are shown. This work extends the very recently implemented capability of performing DTI on a 64mT system, and shows substantial improvement due to the increased through-plane resolution achieved with super-resolution.
